Imagine an art and design industry driven by shared knowledge, coexistence, and accountability
Trash Club is the community and network that encourages creative practitioners to connect, collaborate, and grow. We are advocates of a global conversation about the importance of coexistence and sustainable practice within art and design
Since 2021, Trash Club has fostered a space for our community to exchange knowledge and ideas weekly. With this knowledge comes the support of a shared vision towards a more inclusive, equitable, and responsible future for all

“Having a diverse cohort and a space to speak freely with peers is such a liberating thing.”
Rachel Freire, Santiago de Compotsela, Spain
“It’s a place to learn and grow but also for a concerned empathetic designer to feel less alone.”
Bhaavya Goenka, Jaipur, India
“Being an independent designer can sometimes be lonely, therefore it’s so important to have a safe space where you can have an ongoing discussion with your peers. I’m so happy and grateful to be in this space with such a great group of people.”
Stina Randestad, Stockholm, Sweden
“Trash Club, for me, is the space where creative entrepreneurs find each other when the systems in place that are meant to support us don’t. We’ve somehow managed to create a community and network of artists, makers and designers who all help each other grow through collaboration, conversation, and creation.”
Rahemur Rahman, London, UK
